Life with Mistletoe 🄰

In case anyone had any doubts on the size of Mistletoe’s head…this should clear those right up.

Same moment from 2 different angles.

Mistletoe is officially ready to find her forever family!

She is fostered with other dogs, cats, & young kids. She would prefer to be the only dog & no cats (she can be a little obsessive). With that said she has done very well with kids.

She does coexist fine with the other dogs in her foster home but she gets little enjoyment from their company.

šŸ‘‹ Welcome to our newest arrival…Theo!

Theo was left behind when his owners moved & ended up at a local overcrowded shelter. So far he is a happy go lucky guy. He’s a smaller guy weighing in around 35lbs at a year old.

Once he settles in & is neutered we will begin the search for his new family.

Mistletoe aka Missy aka Beastie has retired her RBF.

She’s slowly gaining weight & her bronchitis is improving. She is very much a diva…she will only eat her hard kibble if it has Ollie’s or Farmer’s dog mixed in. šŸ’…šŸ™„

Thankfully both companies ran special promos during the holidays otherwise she would have to hang up her diva ways. šŸ™Œ

Once she’s cleared her bronchitis she will be adoption ready.

We are thrilled to see Papa Fluff clear eyed & without nasal discharge…FINALLY! It’s been a long road from death’s door.

There’s no doubt he burned one of his 9 lives recovering. ā¤ļøā€šŸ©¹

We are still working on getting him clear of parasites. Once he is clear & finished with his antibiotics he will be adoption ready.

Comet was adopted 2 years ago & returned after Christmas. 😢

It took less than 3 hours for me to decide why she was returned regardless of the reasons disclosed.

1. She’s overly excited around kids
2. She likes to jump & nip on kids & adults

I CANNOT stress this enough…if you are planning to add a dog to your household it’s important to not just think about your household today but what your household may look like in a year or 2.

It’s also important to consider how active YOU are without a dog because chances are it’s not going to change much just by adding a dog.

Start working on training EVERY DAY. Don’t know what to do? Hire a trainer. That way by the time your dog is 2 they already have a solid foundation & so do you.

Training a German Shepherd such as Comet takes dedication. It takes doing it even when you don’t want to. It takes thinking outside of the box…like me walking circles with her on a leash in my hallway.

They are easily on of the top breeds found in shelters across the country. People make this mistake over & over again. šŸ™„

The only difference is Comet has us and we will work with her until she finds her forever family…even on the days we don’t want to.

We can’t head in to 2026 without thanking our fosters families & volunteers.

THANK YOU for showing up to help with adoption events, drive thru vaccine clinics, fundraising events all while opening up your homes to those in need! 🫶

A lot of our content highlights the animals living in my home as fosters BUT without our foster families & friends Sweet Home Animal Rescue wouldn’t be here today.

Fostering can be one of the most rewarding experiences. With that said it’s rarely easy.

šŸ’« Everyone working with Sweet Home (including myself) put in lots of hours with zero pay. Rest assured that all donations & adoption fees collected go directly towards the animals in our care.

Here are the pups & kitties we currently have in care. Some are adoption ready, in the process of becoming adoption eligible while others will live the remainder of their lives in our care.

I needed you and you were there…thank you from the bottom of my heart. ā¤ļøšŸ¾

It’s that time of the year…

🐾 This year we brought in 231 dogs & cats. Our save rate is 98% which means 98% of the animals that came in to our care this year were deemed adoptable.

ā¤ļøšŸ’‰We vaccinated almost 500 community dogs & cats at no cost during our drive thru clinics.

ā° Every year we reflect on the highs & lows to help make our plans for the next year.

🫶 What will never change is our commitment to rescue & adopt responsibly. For us, it’s never about the numbers but we recognize that people like to see them.

šŸ’Œ Everything we accomplished this year was made possible because of the generous donations from people like you.

šŸ’« Say hi to Comet our last intake of 2025. She was adopted 2 years ago & returned yesterday.

Yes, we used emojis & no it wasn’t written by AI.

šŸ„‚ Cheers to a spectacular 2026 šŸ„‚
